        OK, some questions, since "weird" and "isekai" go hand-in-hand.

        Is the protagonist's "crimson red hair" important to the plot, or simply a character feature?

        Is it set in a historically-based world, contemporary, or futuristic? Or is it game-based, as in the protagonist got "sucked up into the game"?

        Are the locations based on ancient civilizations, Asian, or European culture?

        Is there magic or special powers involved?

        Edited to add: Is it a web novel, or print-only?

          @Rabita022 Any more details.
          So Isekai, any other distinguishing features, plot, etc
          The more we have the more likely we can name the series.
          Iaekai is sadly a very large spectrum of novels as it is extremely popular and though red hair, whether it be on the main character, heroine etc though less common than black and blond, is still rather prevalent.

            This kind of reminds me of the librarian meme question "Can you help me find a book? All I know is the book had a red cover". x)

            But I hope we can figure it out somehow.

              Or the "Oh, my son/daughter/niece/nephew goes to that college too, do you know them?!"

              "Um, there are 50,000 students at my university. I probably don't know them. Even if you tell me their name, I probably still don't know them."

              Whoever said nothing's impossible never tried slamming a revolving door.

                @myskaros "only what the rumors were, but I can't say anything, since minors were involved."

                    @CaramelWithoutTheSalt Sacred Blacksmith. Cecily had red hair. But wait, although weird, that wasn't isekai...

                      The most popular (on Bookwalker) Fantasy series with a Red Head I see is Lord Marksman and Michelia. But that isn't an Isekai either. =[

                        Could be "Rokka no yuusha" it's not an isekai but for some reason quite a lot of person tend to remember it as such. Plus the MC is red headed and the setting is quite weird.

                        Do you like death, war and misery ?
                        Do you like badass op loli who let nobody got in their way ?
                        Do you like vengeance story?
                        If so then then vote for The girl who ate a death god

                          @Raitoiro i watched as anime but it could be also “ Maoyū Maō Yūsha”

                          8 parts, 8 weeks to read a book, than binge read the same book within' 2 hours again.

                          Myne: Did we deceived him?
                          Ferdinand: Indeed we did.
                          Myne: *surprised myneface

                            The alchemist just wants to live a quiet life has a female protagonist with red hair. She didnt quite isekai but went into suspended animation for 200 years.

                            Edit for derp.

                              I'm finding it kind of amusing that every suggestion for red-headed protagonists thus far meets the "red hair" requirement, but not the "isekai" one.

                              (My own potential contribution would be The Devil Is A Part-Timer, where the deuteragonist female lead has red hair in all the illustrations, and also the anime. This is despite the description of her in the text being clear that she has black hair.)

                                I doubt it's that but William from "Faraway paladin" as very red hair on most of the color illustrations (although it's described as chestnut-brown in the text). And while it's not a really a "weird isekai it's different from most of them.

                                Do you like death, war and misery ?
